Chill House During Chill Season

    I've been wanting to write The Chill House for a while. But, like the other Shiver and Fears stories, I always found something better. The truth is the stories aren't written by 1st idea to last, they're in order from better to best. My very very first story wasn't The Unlucky Charm. It was The Haunted Cell Phone. After writing them both, The Unlucky Charm seemed more frightful. I mean being followed by an abnormal rabbit, because you have what belongs to them.
    I mean what if you had a mummy's eyes, or a skeleton's hand, or a pirate's peg leg? How creepy would it be if (even though they're suppose to be dead) they came after you just to get it back?
   Now think about The Haunted Cell Phone: Some strange phone appears from a rain storm and give awkward phone calls from no where. Hmmm,,,, being stalked by a rabbit or having a phone with cursed calls... Which scares you more?
   If you said stalking rabbit, I thought so too. If you said cursed phone, you get scared too easy. But, it's still good. That just means Shiver and Fears is scary enough to give you shiver and fears. I mean that's why it's called that.
    Now back to The Chill House, It's to be the last story written in 2015. Afterwards we're planning on working on something new. Check out our next blog to find out what we have in store.

It's New but Also Old

A few months back Shiver and Fears book A Witch's Coincidence was written, but couldn't be published. The team illustrator was still working on the cover, and you can't have a book without a cover. We did the next best thing and sent it to a website where people write stories and share them with other writers. It was to stay there until the cover was complete.

It shows a character looking in the town newspaper where they talk about the town curse of having a witch walking amongst them. And in a way it looks like the girl cooking dinner as the brews her stew...  hmmm, could it be? or is it just... a coincidence. I sure won't tell.

 So where do you buy this book? Right here< It can be found in a few other places too... ... ... well I don't know where! But it is! You just have to look. There are like 1000s of book websites, I'm sure you can find it on one.

 

More big news Shiver and Fears is getting another narrated audio book set. Sibling Subtraction is about a group of friends who trap their annoying little siblings in a trick, but really the jokes on them. I bet you want to know more huh? Well codes will be handed out this December... if you can survive that long!

 Our physic friend here predicts a Creepy Christmas to bring a cold chill to who ever buys one! Don't believe me? Dare you to buy one then, and if you end on the news stated to be frozen we'll know where that came from!...

Writer's Vision

Shiver and Fears might not come together like you may think. Some book were printed before others, some had a change in idea, others were never printed. For example The Haunted Party was going to  be called The Never Ending Party. Kevin was to be a guest at a party but was never able to leave, Kevin was trying to leave the party but each door was just another door back into the party, to then finally realize he's in a deep trance and was never at a party. I changed it, because the story was never fully plotted in story. It then became The Haunted Party and was going to be about a boy summoning ghost with his weird necklace... I completely forgot to mention it. That's why it's one of the Creepy Christmas Tales.

A story never written was The Bus Driver of Doom. a story about a bus driver who get replaced by a ghost. Why? You might ask. Can't tell you, I might print it, and don't want to ruin it for you!

In the Skeleton Dinner Rashonda's name was going to be Danni. We're still debating on whether Secret Saturday should get a sequel and The Beast Within the Bed was planning to be It Happened Under the Bed. You might be able to understand why that changed.


But that's why we plan it before we write. Whether it be the name, the title, the picture, or the whole story plot itself an author must see his story before writing it.
